I was a bit bummed when I heard Godzilla was on screen for less than 10 minutes, but the reviews and ratings have convinced me to probably go watch it in theaters!
Edit: I just booked last minute tickets for the last show tonight (in 1.5 hours) lol. I'll be busy tomorrow and I don't want to go on a weekend, so might as well go now.
Edit 2: Just got back from the theater. The two best things about this film are:
Atomic breath / heat ray. Even the latest hollywood godzilla’s version of atomic breath is nothing compared to this one. Amazing.
The score. The eerie orchestral swells fit so well with the circumstances of the time period when the film takes place. I’ll definitely listen to the score again if they release it officially.
I’d say it’s worth it to watch in theaters. It’s not perfect, but all scenes with godzilla more than make up for whatever flaws the rest of the film has.
I saw it last night, absolutely worth it. Fantastic film.
Have you watched Shin Godzilla as well? If so, how's it compare with that? That was the last Godzilla movie I saw and I really dug it.
I really enjoyed Shin Godzilla. They are very different movies, and I'll need to rewatch minus one a few times before I cement my opinion, but I think I'd give Shin the edge.
